Book Description
The Collected Works of H. G. Wells is a monumental collection of science fiction novels, short stories, and essays that showcase H. G. Wells' visionary imagination and his profound impact on the genre. Wells' literary style is characterized by his ability to combine scientific speculation with social commentary, creating works that are both thought-provoking and entertaining. From the timeless classic 'The War of the Worlds' to the imaginative 'The Invisible Man', this collection is a treasure trove of imaginative storytelling that continues to captivate readers today. H. G. Wells, a prolific writer and social reformer, was heavily influenced by his interest in scientific advancements and his concerns about the future of society. His experiences growing up in the industrial age inspired many of his works, which often explore themes of progress, morality, and the consequences of unchecked power. Wells' curiosity about the world and his desire to envision different futures drove him to create some of the most enduring works in science fiction literature. I highly recommend The Collected Works of H. G. Wells to anyone interested in exploring the intersections of science, society, and imagination. Wells' ability to blend scientific accuracy with speculative fiction makes this collection a must-read for fans of the genre and those interested in the ways in which literature can shape our understanding of the world.

Book Description
Early one summer morning in England, in the year 1893 in the reign--which seemed in those days to have been going on for ever and to be likely to go on for evermore--of Queen Victoria, there was born a little boy named Peter. Peter was a novel name then; he was before the great crop of Peters who derived their name from Peter Pan. He was born with some difficulty. His father, who had not been to bed all night, for the trouble of the birth had begun overnight at about nine o'clock, was walking about in the garden in a dewy dawn, thinking the world very dreadful and beautiful, when he first heard Peter cry. Peter, he thought, made a noise like a little frightened hen that something big had caught.... Peter's mother had been moaning but now she moaned no more, and Peter's father stood outside and whispered "Oh, God! Oh! Damn them and damn them! why don't they tell me?" Then the nurse put her head out of the window; it was a casement window with white roses about it; said "Everything's all right. I'll tell you when to come in," and vanished again. Peter's father turned about very sharply so that she should not see he was fool enough to weep, and went along the flagged path to the end of the garden, where was the little summerhouse that looked over the Weald. But he could not see the Weald because his tears blinded him. All night Peter's father had been thinking what an imperfect husband he had always been and how he had never really told his wife how much he loved her, and how indeed until now he had never understood how very much he loved her, and he had been making good resolutions for the future in great abundance, in enormous abundance, the most remarkable good resolutions, and one waking nightmare after another had been chasing across his mind nightmares of a dreadful dark-grey world in which there would be no Dolly, no Dolly at all anywhere, even if you went out into the garden and whistled your utmost, and he would be a widower with only one little lonely child to console him. He could not imagine any other woman for him but Dolly.
